»DER ABSTURZ« LESUNG MIT ÉDOUARD LOUIS
In our words:
Édouard Louis is one of the most exciting voices in contemporary French literature. He writes about social inequality, violence and identity with unsparing openness. His reading promises not only intensive insights into his new book, but also an encounter with an author who fearlessly makes social grievances visible while always remaining very personal.
In the organizer's words:
Reading: Thomas Hauser (Residenztheater)
Moderation: Sonja Finck
A brother dies - and there is no mourning for a long time. In his new novel, France's literary star Édouard Louis once again writes along the lines of his own story, posing the very big, universal questions: Is it possible to escape one's family? When does a person begin to hate? Forced into a life without opportunities for advancement at an early age, shaped by patriarchy and hardened, the brother dreams of a greater life. Until he is found dead in his small apartment at the age of thirty-eight. Édouard Louis tells the story of this collapse with great psychological sensitivity. "Der Absturz" (Aufbau // Engl. by Sonja Finck) is an angry book about classism and exclusion and at the same time a tender portrait of the brother.
